US First Lady Melania Trump is said to sleep alone in the Air Force One cabin, as Donald Trump practically never sleeps during long-haul flights despite his staff urging him to get some rest, according to reports.
The US president’s doctor revealed last year that he may on occasion take a sleeping pill, but the President usually remains wide awake.
One source told CNN: “He will not go to sleep.”
The routine favoured by the US President while aboard Air Force One has been revealed by ex-staffers, who claimed Donald Trump doesn’t sleep on board Air Force One, according to CNN.
